Re: My new site layout.
This looks good, I think a simple flash over the buttons would be enough for presentation value, I'd think it'd be better to stick the contact info and name on each image though. One thing though, that little symbol logo kinda looks like a sac, you might wanna change it a bit, maybe I'm just too interpretive. -
Re: From 3D program to game engine - Step by Step
If you can find the old Half-Life 1 SDK, it has a book-length Word file that basically lays out all the steps you need to do HL mods, going from the MAX biped to the final SMDs. I found it to surprisingly complete, and written to the mod audience. It's outdated, yes, but it contains all the important details. . -
Re: Learning Modo scripting...
Eh, depends what you're exporting to but a fully fledged plugin might be a better option than a script. There's a full wiki for the plugin SDK, too, rather than a dodgy pdf for scripting. I wrote an SMD exporter (for the Source engine) and because it's a script it's really slow for larger meshes. A plugin would be waaay… -
Re: Environment: Generic Urban WIP
Really clean set of assets you have here. Sme assets though such as the door which this is very strong is the over use of polygons. If its flat you don't need it. You know what I mean? Unless your using ir for texturing in wich case ill just shut up! Haha. -
Re: Extracting specular and reflectivity maps in Zbrush.
Exactly..but I have seen several very beautifully textured works where Zbrush users use polypainting and then a low poly was made with the textures.Like this:http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=77580 Did he paint the textures in Photoshop or polypaint in ZBrush? Why can't softwares be awesome and wholesome at… -
Re: [Finished] Samurai
Details in the sculpt are gorgeous!!! Just kinda skeptic about this chain mail on the elbows, looks way too weak to me, looks like it would break in a sec. I would suggest to make it plain or remove it. And yeah haha thought the same for the artstation contest, too bad because it's coming out really nicely!! -
Re: Jigglebone problem w/ TF2 Model
Looks like you didn't link your bones together. Link the jigglebone to the bip_head and it should be resolved. Also on the idle model, don't use an idle from a completely different hat. Just put the name of your hat's .smd in there and it'll be fine. If your hat is named "teacup.smd" then put "teacup.smd" as your idle. -
Re: Understanding averaged normals and ray projection/Who put waviness in my normal map?
Going back at the first post, I don't know if this solution has been posted already : I went crazy baking the Thompson smg barrel, but after several test bakes I found out that this works pretty well I know it might look like a mess, sorry for the bad scheme XD -
Re: Report problems with the new forums here
No, but I did have to do some wizardy to get it coloured. Let me figure it out here, 1 sec... EDIT:* write the text you want to link from | AdamBromell.com * choose its colour/style | AdamBromell.com * highlight it | AdamBromell.com * hit the hyperlink button | AdamBromell.com * input url | AdamBromell.com * hit ok | | \/ -
Re: Questions about Cubemap
Well with the former texCUBE() you had to use additional code to fetch a specific mipmap, and that included, if i'm correct, to store the miplevel as a grayscale value in the alpha. Since sm3 we have texCUBElod which is more convenient :) but you'll still need some sort of preprocessing into cubemapgen for the seams…
